Twenty-six countries have signed up to contribute to Ukraine’s security after any ceasefire or peace deal with Russia, French President Emmanuel Macron said Thursday. « We have today 26 countries who have formally committed — some others have not yet taken a position — to deploy as a ‘reassurance force’ troops in Ukraine, or be present on the ground, in the sea, or in the air, » Macron told reporters at a joint press conference with Volodymyr Zelensky following a meeting of allies in Paris.
